[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I am not hearing anyone say very clearly that they understand who their child is, or what they want. Many 18 year olds are not ready to make any choices. We sent our youngest to community college for two years, and let him work while he was there. He came out with 3.8 and then transferred to UVA, which is a Great state school. No pressure, and now he knows what he wants to accomplish and where his passion lies. I don't hear anyone taking what their particular child needs or wants into account on this board.[/quote] Maybe because the kids themselves don't know who they are or what they want. However, you give your kid a gift when you teach work ethic, for example. Then when your kid does figure out what s/he wants, he will have the drive to pursue it.[/quote]
